How food is contributing to the welfare onboard a ship In this episode, we explore the powerful connection between food and crew welfare onboard ships. Gone are the days when meals were the central social event of the day—today, many seafarers spend more time alone in their cabins. But despite this shift, the importance of a good meal has not diminished. Christian Ioannou, CEO of MCTC Marine Ltd., joins us to talk about the crucial role of the ship’s chef and how proper nutrition and culinary variety can boost morale, enhance well-being, and bring people together—regardless of cultural differences. Learn how MCTC supports shipboard cooks to perform at their best, and why food remains one of the most important elements of life at sea. Thank you for listening #everyconversationmatters

Are we following the times? Leadership and situational awareness are not part of maritime education. If we want to achieve our goals to become sustainable, then we need the right people. So many things have to change for us to become seriously competitive with other industries. We need to target very young children so that we can become part of their dreams. Listen to Camilla Westergaard, one of the young people who dares to speak up. Our conversation involves a few answers to our challenges, and maybe we can spark you to develop a few more. Please give us a shoutout on social media, and we are ready to continue this conversation online. Thank you for listening.
